Position Description:
Blue Origin is committed to building a future where millions of people live and work in space to benefit Earth. We must return to the Moon permanently, and the Blue Moon Lander enables this goal. Blue Moon is a large, flexible, reusable commercial lander for cargo or crew. Lunar Transportation is Blue Origin's team dedicated to developing mission architectures such as our planned Lunar Lander program, Blue Moon (Link: ). Our Lunar Pathfinder mission will demonstrate the lander's core capabilities - including the privately funded BE-7 landing engine, precision landing sensors, and sophisticated coordinated power and propulsion architecture - on an early New Glenn flight. The team building this vehicle is rethinking how space systems are crafted, with a high-performing architecture, efficient reusability, and rapid design iteration. Come join our team and pave the road to a permanent lunar presence. As part of a hardworking team of spacecraft development engineers, you will own the verification and validation process of GN&C algorithms within a model-based design workflow for a lunar lander. You will be responsible for implementing modeling standards, developing unit and regression testing frameworks, and implementing continuous integration pipelines. You will own the formulation and implementation of processes for guidance, navigation, and control (GN&C) software development through the verification process. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight.
